Are you sure it is Pine 3.5?  The current version is 3.95.

> Is the IMAP server in the Pine distribution a full IMAP implementation?

I simply got the IMAP separately from ftp.cac.washington.edu, why not?
That will be full implementation... :-)

Cheers!

The IMAP server in the Pine 3.95 distribution is at IMAP2bis level.

You probably need an IMAP4rev1 level server for Netscape.  Sources for our
IMAP4rev1 server are: 
	ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/mail/imap.tar.Z

Pine 4.00 will be distributed using this version.  Pine 3.95 works fine
using the IMAP4rev1 server; for the most part it is upwards-compatible
from IMAP2bis.
